Physicians Have Found Out

That a communicating and foreign
element in the blood, developed by
indigestion, is the cause of rheuma-
tism. This settles upon the sensitive
sub-cutaneous covering of the muscles
and ligaments of the joints, causing
constant and shifting pain, and ag-
gregating as calcareous, chalky de-
post which produces stiffness and
distortion of the joints. No fact
which experience has demonstrated
in regard to Hostetter's Stomach
Bitters has stronger evidence to sup
port it than this, namely, that this
medicine of comprehensive uses
checks the formidable and atrocious
disease, nor is it less positively estab-
lished that it is preferable to the
poisons often used to arrest it, since
the medicine contains only salutary
ingredients. 1t is also signal rem
edy for malarial fevers, constipation,
dyspepsia, kidney and bladder all
ments, debility and other disorders.
See that you get the genuine.

The l.ehigh Miners Strike.
THE MEN APPEAL TO THE PHILADELPHIA EDIT
TO TRY GRTTI r

TO TRY TO SETTLE 1T.
The committee appointed at the joint conference
Of miners organizations at Pottsville, Pa, last
week. for the purpose OF visiting the editors OF the
papers OF Philadelphia, and appealing to them to
use their influence to put an end to the miners
strike in the Lehigh region visited PHILADELPHIA
yesterday. Mr.. Childs, OF theLedger, expressed a
sincere desire to be OF service In the matter but
desired TO be better informed as to the grounds Of
difference between the two bodies concerned
Editor smith, OF the Press, was in New York.
Mr.. A. X. Mcclure, OF the Times, expressed his
willingness to act in concert with the other gen
tlemen. He suggested that statement of the
claims, position and arguments in support OF the
strike be formulated and furnished to the AssO-
ciated Press, in order tn clearer understanding
could be had by the general public as to the
deserts Of the case. Mr.. Singerly, OF the Record
at once interested himself in the matter. He then
inquired II the advance in wages asked by the
miners was not about 81 cents a ton. The COM
mittee answered that was about the amount OF
advance asked.
"Weu, then" continued Mr. Sinperly. sqf that
be true there will be no doubt that you will secure
the sympathies OF the public when the facts are
learned; and now, gentlemen, when the companies
or charging $125 advance per ton on coal and the
miners are only asking 81 cents advance am for
the miners every time"
The committee will return to Pottsville and re-
port TO the convention, and recommend the com.
pillng OF a statement to be furnished TO the press
The committee claim that the large operators
have refused to consider any proposition coming
from knight Of Labor, whether as such or as one
OF their own employees. This, they say, absolutely
debars any arbitration, as there are no men who
are not members OF the organization employed by
these cOllterteS.

About Don Dickinson.
HOW THE MAN WHO Is TO GO INTO THE CABINET LOOKS
AND ACTS


AND ACTS.
From the New York Mail and Express.
Hon. Don NJ. Dickinson, who is reported to have
accepted the Postmaster Generalshp from Presi-
dent Cleveland, visits this city often and quarters
himself like an East Indian nabob at the Hoffman
House. He generally occupies a suite of rooms On
the 18th street side, furnished in magnificent ia
panese style. In his reception room chairs OF an
tQue pattern, curiouSly carved are placed in front
OF a fireplace rejecting polished brass and glitter
Ing with metal brightness Around the walls of
the room hang large shields OF peculiar designs
and the floor Is covered with thick velvet Garrett
Everything has an air OF Oriental magntficence
but resembles the average English clergyman. HIS
complexion Is pale white, and his black side-whis-
kers and hair stand out in marked contrast. With
short chm, thin aQueline nose and almost hollow
cheeks, Dickinson could easily be taken for a STU
dent wasting existence over the midnight lamp His
eyes are bright and clear. however and are ST lded
by a high and well-rOunded forehead. He Is OF
average height, and his slender frame Is well knit
In dress he is scrupulousy neat. His frock coats
like tight glove on a maiden'S hand, but he de-
f1e5 fashion by eschewtng the silk hat. He is a
millionaire, and his legal business Is among the
largest In The West.
When In the city he does not indulge in much
gayety and goes to the theater very seldom In
his movements he Is quick, and walking down
broadway he looks like one deeply immersed in
business and hurrytng TO some appointment. He
has been President Cleveland's firm supporter and
has always predicted his reelection. While not a
civ1i-service refOrmer OF the Chinese kind he be-
lieves that efficient men should occupy the ofices
especially democrats when the democrats are In
power.

NIEHAUs' HEROIC BRONZE OF THE MARTYR PRESIDE
UNVEILED AT CINCINNATI.

NIEHAUs HEROIC BRONZE OF THE MARTYR PRESIDENT
UNVEILED AT CINCINNATI.
The Garfield bronze statue, by Niehaus was IN
yelled in Cincinnati yesterday afternoon before an
immense concOurse of people. Miss Leonora Smith,
daughter OF Mayor Smith, pulled the cord that
loosed the veil revealed the statue The statue
- OF heroic size, and stands upon tall granite
base midway OF the intersection OF Sth and Race
streets. The preliminary ceremonies began at
O'Clock. and consisted OF speech at Music Hall by
the Hon. Ezra Taylor, Representative in Congress
from Garneld's district, and a procession from
Music Hall TO the statue, In which the soldier so
cieties and militia took part. Several thousand
men were In line.
For half an hour before the regular exercises be-
gan IN Music Hall the Cincinnati Orchestra poured
forth the grand, solemn strains OF GOunod's
"March ct Cortege." After an overture Rabbi
Benjamin offered a simple yet pow rful prayer.
Then number OF letters from distinguished men
were read, among them letters from Southern
governors and the mayors OF Southern cities, pay
Ing trbu -es In glowing language TO the great son
OF ONO Among the letters read were those from
Governor Buckner, OF Kentucky, Wayne Mcveagh,
Robert i. Lincoln, Thomas James. Abram 5. Hew-
lit, Samuel j. Randall, ex-President Hayes, and
John sherman. When the statue was unveiled
the band played ''The star Spangled Banner y
after which Mayor Smith assembled the platform,
and In brief speech accepted, In behalf OF the
city, the statue. Music ana prayer followed.

Was Wilbur r. storey lnsanel

THE CONTEST OVER HIS TWO wIIIs-ONE OF THE
DOCUMENTS SAID TO HAVE BEEN TAMPERED WITH.
After the death Of Mr.. Wilbur F. Storey, OF the
Chicago Times, two wills were found, one bearing
date 1879 and the other 1881. They were pretty
much alike, but the 1881 will was more favorable
to Mrs Storey, and being the later one of the two
was offered for probate. Judge Knickerbocker
refused to admit to probate on the ground OF the
insanity OF Mr.. Storey, and the case was taken to
the Circuit Court. The court decided that Mr.
storey was not insane when he made the will OF
1881. An appeal was taken to the higher courts
and the Supreme Court reversed the decision, leav-
ing the will OF 1881 seemingly knocked out OF ex-
fstence. The will OF 1879 was then brought
forward and admitted to probate, but an ap-
peal was taken TO the Circuit Court where
the case now rests. 1t Is now stated that
the will Of 1879, which is on flle in the Probate
Court, bears marks on the back OF the last page Of
an erasure having been made On the back OF the
viii, at the top, are the words: xviii OF w. f.
Storey" and under this, by holding the last leaf
up 10 the light can be seen the erasure. In or
through. Chemicals were also used In obliterat1ng
the writing, as can be seen by the discOoratiOn OF
the ink the Inside OF the last leaf Several per-
sons were found who will swear that when they
saw the document I'm question IL bore the indOrse-
ment as stated-"This will revoked by another
Will W. +. s."
IL is understood that there is evidence In exist
ence TO show beyond all reasonable doubt the will
originally bore such an Endorsement, and also to
show when where, and by whom the erasure was
made II these things are proved number of
fresh complications may arise and leave bound
less field for conjecture.

The II. and O. syndicate.


A STATEMENT OF THE NEGOTIATIONS NEARLY
READY FOR NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. OF MIS-
STATEMENTS.
From the Baltimore American.
competent authority in the Baltimore and
Ohio Railroad Company said yesterday that a
statement Of the negotiations with the New York
syndicate would soon be made public; that when
they came to complete final arrangements with the
bankers some comparatively unimpOrtant changes
were made but none OF any moment. He said so
far from the syndicate exacting unusual or severe
terms they had really waived many upon which
they might with prOpriety have insisted. For
board before the expiration OF directors terms
they advised against 1t, so that their interest
might obtain recognition at the annual election;
ana tney did not ask for directors from outside OF
Maryland but at the suggestion of their European
correspondents would like TO have some repre-
sentaton In the board but they could be chosen to
suit the majority OF The stock Interests in this
city, and only asked that they should be men OF
known large financial ability, influence and stand
Hon. Robert NJ. McLane, who was known to them,
but as he was out OF the country, his brother
james L. McLane, was substituted. and he was en-
tirey satisfactory to the stock interests In Baui
more and the syndicate. The authority said he
had seen a published statement OF the alleged
financial affairs OF the road, and 1t contained
numerous mlsStatementS, and was not nearer
than million OF dollars to the true account.
IL was probable, he said that the company would
not need s1O OOO, 600 in the loan, but there was
doubt w A1ch had arisen in the minds OF the drec-
tors themselves, and they differed slightly upon the
uucStiOu nc tuUuSLt IL NOulu De ADVISABLE 10
have the use Of the money, and he considered the
terms OF the loan fair, and 1t would be exceedingly
beneficial to have, say, couple OF hundred thous
and dollars for any convenient and desirable i'm
provement tmt might arise, and such chances
were constantly coming up; but as the company
di not have the money and might desire TO make
special loans In each case they often had TO let
good chances slip through their fingers The
s., 600, 600 bond loan would be awaited OF and the
matter OF the 100000 preferred stock was one
entirely optional with the directors, and he was
decidedly In favor OF issuing 1t, so as not to be
cramped for money. The acLiOn or the syndicate
towards the company had been OF the kindest and
most liberal character, but OF course, anything
would be criticised, and nothing would suit some
parties who, having no financial connection with
the company, were disinterested enough to OYer IL
only advice, and not money when 1t was required.
The mortgage shortly to be placed on file would
